Our Dick Abroad.
HIS AUSTRALIAN VISIT. Sydney, May 17. Mr Seddon paid a visit to-day to Hawkesbury Agricultural College, where he received an enthusiastic welcome from the students. He said he was glad to find that all classes were represented in the College. In Lincoln College (New Zealand) only the large farming passes were represented. In other Words, Lincoln was not a popular institution, such as existed here. He (Mr Seddon) suggested that twenty students from Hawkesbury College should be sent' to Lincoln and promised to ask the authorities of Lincoln College to send twenty to Hawkesbury. Such a scheme would produce an Invaluable interchange of ideas in to the difference in farming conditions between New South Wales and New Zealand. He was prepared to say that if the New South Wales Government would defray the expenses of sending their students the New Zealand Government would defray the expenses of the New Zealanders. Members of the State Ministry are entertaining Mr Seddon at a private dinner.
